get your cheque book out, you know you want to.
That extra height undoubtedly has its advantages but these days, it's extra width that I could probably use in a mini!
Mitsuoka eh? What are we supposed to do with the people who came up with those er, "interesting" takes on classic shapes? I favour whipping them on their bare arses with rolled up 1960s editions of Motorsport.

I must avoid reading your posts at work whilst drinking tea at my desktop PC - just had to mop the keyboard and clean the screen - the rest of the staff thought I was having a seizure
Glad you liked my choice of vehicle . . . . . . .

I have to agree with Terry on this with the specifics of magazine and smacking it does sound like
somebody has a fetish

So do we get you whips chains and chattels for your Christmas present?

Hmm..
Fetish: ˈfɛtɪʃ/ Noun: an inanimate object worshipped for its supposed magical powers or because it is considered to be inhabited by a spirit.
Sounds more like an Austin A35 than anything more "niche" so, if you want to buy me one of
those for the Christmas, go right ahead. Spruce Green please, original 950 preferred! Actually, why wait? Can I have one a week on Sunday please? That's a much more relevant celebration than the birth of some deluded if somewhat persuasive hippy, no matter how nice a geezer old JHC actually was.

Here you go John - the answer to your plastic mini fetish - with the added bonus that the rear pickup body is big enough to carry both your wallet and the weekly shopping

I want that house, but only if the contents of the yard and all of that Walls Ice Cream are included.
Chris, that mini-based pickup is cute - though why does it have a dead axle on trap springs when it was made by Indespension

- but in no way could that bed carry my average week's messages. I get a regular delivery from good old Associated Dairies and this is the vehicle they use:
OK, so a lot of that is taken up by Lego, ink cartridges and motoring publications but my food and beer fit in there somewhere.
